Here's an idea I totally ripped off from someone funnier than me! Make sims based on us (RL or RP, you decide), stick 'em in a house together and just watch how they go about their business. It's kinda like Tomodachi Life but with way more options. I know it doesn't sound that funny but I got hooked on Sims again and decided to try this cuz what else am I gonna do with my life? .-.

If ya wanna participate, here's what ya do:

1. Cut a hole in a box Post a general description of what you want your sim to look like and wear and blah.2. Pick some traits (http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Trait_(The_Sims_3)#List_of_traits) for them to have. While a sim can only have 5 traits, I don't want to have any overlapping ones so pick 10 or so, just in case. Note that I don't have the final two expansion packs (Island Paradise and Into the Future, just click a trait to see what EP they're from). Also nothing from the Other Traits tab, as that's just for the console games.3. Choose a lifetime wish (http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Lifetime_wish). It's unlikely they will ever get fulfilled, but the sims don't need to know that You can see what LTWes go well with what traits on that page, but they don't have to match if you don't want to. I will try to poke them in the right direction if I can but it's ultimately on them.4. Favorite food, color and type of music. And anything else you want me to try to include.

Can't say how many people will be in the main household for sure, I'm thinking 4-6. There should be some room for expansion just in case they decide to get a pet or someone gets impregnated by aliens or something.

Then there's the rest of the town. I'm planning to empty it of EA's wastes of space and add people you guys wanna see, like characters from random games or shows or whatnot, or just general character concepts. Anyone who doesn't make the main household is of course also welcome to populate the town.

Well I think Zerdark is obvious. Put him in a suit and top hat. Make him insane, hot-headed, workaholic, perfectionist, proper, lucky, Family-Oriented, that kind of thing. Possible Evil. Lifetime wish is obvious, Emperor of Evil. Favorite food can be Spaghetti, color obviously red, and classical for music. Anything else?

Oh right, I forgot about zodiac signs (http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Zodiac#The_Sims_3). Unlike in real life, it has nothing to do with birthdays and everything to do with compatibility, and even then the impact it has is minimal.

Also I had already imagined Zerdark wearing a suit no matter what if I had Into the Future he totally would've built himself a Wheatley but alas, I do not.

Also, you can do that with that DLC? BUY IT! *shot*Nah, you can just substitute by making a Wheatley Sim as close to Wheatley as possible and make him Zerdark's best friend. Employee as well if possible. Wheatley gained an android form in the old RP, so it's plausible.

Gaggles is the neurotic supernatural fan with a heart of gold whose lifetime wish is to be an Alchemy Artisan. Other traits can include...other key traits for Alchemy Artisan, I don't fucking know. Favorite color is blue and favorite food is hamburgers. Zodiac sign is Libra.

AND MAKE HIM LOOK STUPID. BECAUSE THAT'S THE BEST DESCRIPTION OF HOW I WANT HIM TO LOOK THAT I CAN COME UP WITH. I'M A GENIUS, I KNOW. *shot*

•Lao•No other part of his name is necessary, just LAO•Martial Arts Master for Superboss parallel•Excitable, Brave, Clumsy, Natural Born Performer, Adventurous, Hot-Headed, Ambitious, and Kleptomaniac because why not•As terrifyingly skinny as possible, with as beaky of a face as possible, and if possible, make him purple

And just because I saw the Life Wish in question•Nathan Pierce•Because why have him with his actual name, that's no fun•The Ark Builder•Handy, Brave, Born Salesperson, Charismatic, Friendly, Ambitious, Good, Workaholic•Make him look like the kind of guy who would be in a bad movie playing the role of the guy at the water cooler with those dumb restructuring ideas that only make sense after the fourth cup and you start to need to hit the bathroomOr like the guy who got hit with the keyboard in Wanted

Augustine-Absent-minded, nurturing, brave, unlucky, friendly, dog person, family oriented, good, over emotional. /too lazy to check if any of those were from the EPs you don't have so apologies if that's the case. -Lifetime goal: Surrounded by family-Clothing can be pretty much anything casual.

Oh well if it's Gavin and not von Karma, his lifetime wish should be changed to International Super Spy. More appropriate. I think he'll still perform some questionable actions as a spy and he WAS an assassin for hire, so he can keep the evil trait.

I think I'll prefer von Karma if only for the fact that The Sims is a more modern setting, and I find it interesting that there's an Emperor of Evil option. Sounds kinda like his original founding of The Empire. Work your way up through the criminal underground, declare yourself Emperor. I like it.

Warning: I'm not very good at designing sims, so sorry if they don't come out to you liking. In my defense, I didn't have too much to go on in terms of facial features and body types and such.

Zerdark:

Can you see the pattern? I tried to model him after Robin and... it doesn't show at all As hats and hair didn't become separate until Sims 4, a top hat was a no-go because it came with really ugly hair. Suits for every occasion also didn't work because there weren't enough suits in various categories, so I went with business-like clothes or something.

Oyu:

If it wasn't for the hair/hat issue, this guy would've had a traffic cone on his head Not much to say about this other than noting the random Mario cosplay. ...Is that blood on his jacket?

Lao:

I tried, I really did. He sorta came out looking alienesque, so I went with space-y clothes until there were no more and then I just gave him what the fuck ever. I realize his outfits are rather similar to Zerdark's in terms of color but there's not a whole lot that looks good on a purple guy.

Auggie:

The token girl! The game lets you give sims different hairstyles for different occasions and only Auggie's hair was long enough to let me utilize that. Well, you can have varying amounts of hair but I like to keep it consistent. Is it just me or does her face look thinner up close?

Like it? Hate it? Let me know if there's anything you want me to change before this gets going.

Here we are! The gang is all moved in and ready to start being idiots. Gotta say, this place is lookin' pretty schwanky. Well, there's just one thing...

It's almost completely empty! Thankfully there's still enough funds left for me to get some basic living necessities, like beds and a computer (

A very basic living room. Being a Couch Potato, Oyu's probably gonna be spending the most time here.

Auggie and Oyu's shared bedroom. What is that next to Oyu's bed, some kind of tiger tentacle plant thing?

Lao gets the house's only double bed, cause nobody was gonna argue with the scary purple spaceman about it.

And lastly, Zerdark has his own little bedroom/study upstairs. It's a little cramped but it's all his and nobody else is allowed inside (seriously, I locked it for everybody else). Let's see what the crew feels about their new home.

Zerd wastes no time and immediately rolls the want for a criminal job. So many crimes, so little time...

...as does Oyu, for some reason. Don't be like that mang

He also wants to start his path on becoming a Fullmetal Alchemist, which is far less redundant.

Auggie wants to become a stylist, although I can't say she looks very pleased about wanting it.

And Lao wants to join the military? I don't know, I can't help but think that a purple dude would be considered a security breach.

They finally head inside, thinking about dining room furniture. Radical.

Auggie isn't sure what to make of Lao. Neither am I.

Oyu holds a very deep discussion with a chair. Of course.

Turns out chairs don't have much to say, so he ditches it in favor of the cooking channel.

Meanwhile, Lao plays Record Keeper.

Zerdark decides to suit up while thinking about that damn fourth Chaos Emerald. Classy.

Four people, three-person couch. This is a conundrum.

Zerdark is distressed.

"I hate you all."

Are they watching the same show?

Realizing that being a criminal mastermind requires some serious negotiation skills, Zerdark rolls the want to become suave.

I don't see how this can end badly.

Lao wants to visit China, which makes sense since he wants to become a Martial Arts Master and China is the only place in the entire world where you can learn to go all crouching tiger, hidden dragon, so we'll have to get on that at some point. Not for a while though.

daw

Auggie wishes she was a punk rocker with flowers in her hair.

There ya go. I pop that into her personal inventory.

It took Oyu more than an hour to realize that in order to do alchemy you need an alchemy station. Bravo.

That doesn't look ominous at all.

Amusingly, everyone else immediately rolls the want to learn alchemy.

Auggie talks about how clean the house is, which Lao appreciates. Oyu's just thinking about himself.

Oookay then.

Girl I think you might be jumping the gun just a little bit.

All of a sudden Lao gets up and Auggie follows. What could they be up to?

...Pillow fighting. Huh.

Yeah that didn't go so well.

They attempt conversation next, which also goes poorly. It's gonna be a while before Auggie gets that hug :c

I force Oyu's ass upstairs to actually do some alchemy, which apparently makes him want to clean something.

Being a fan of the supernatural, it doesn't take him long to grasp that mixing stuff and stuff makes stuff.

What elixirs you can make is independent from your alchemy skill level but you need to be at a certain level to learn how to make certain elixirs. Usually they require specific ingredients but being the most basic one, the Vial of Bliss simply requires any food thing. You could probably just eat the food thing and be happy all the same but shaddup.

There's no way this can backfire.

...Is that implying you want someone to die? dude wtf

These two have been talking for hours but their relationship hasn't gotten any better. guys wat u dong

I have Zerdark scour the interwebz for a job and wat must be something added by a mod.

That's better.

Working from home is unique to workoholics, and Zerd wastes no time.

Suddenly Oyu explodes...

...and becomes Slippy Toad. wat

welp

Auggie's reaction is to smack him with a pillow.

Alchemist is one of a couple of skill careers. You register as self-employed at City Hall and then just sell whatever it is you're making. The best part? You are your own boss so you get to pick when to work and you can't get fired! Some other skill careers are writer, angler, gardener and painter.

Auggie attempts to brighten Oyu's day by... talking about bright smiles. Lady, he has no teeth.

I'm scared

That's rather unexpected. I will definitely have to send everyone to a karaoke bar at some point. Preferably when one of them isn't a toad.

Lao sees someone else getting along with Auggie and isn't having any of that.

Politoyud used Yawn!

Being the mom of the group, Auggie starts cooking some mac and cheese.

It's your own damn fault for refusing to stop working ya dip.

His mind too strained to do actual work, Zerdark wants to do the next best thing and gain some skill points his job requires. Jeez he's persistent.

And then there's this. Yup.

The first meal has been cooked and the house isn't on fire, yay!

what is it with you people and pillows

Zerd is looking kinda apprehensive about the fact that he has to sit next to Auggie.

Other than Karaoke, Zersim is surprisingly accurate. He'd undermine a charity if it was run by one of his rivals. As for cackling evilly about Auggie, the only thing I can think of is he wants her as an apprentice. I see absolutely no way that can possibly backfire.
